ive built sevral turbo kits, best way to figure out piping is pretty much do it last. get your manifold and turbo and intercooler and do a test fit then visualize it in your head to see what bends you will need. then order the bends from http://www.mandrel-bends.com/catalog/ i dont know what brand turbo or wastegate come with that spa kit so i cant say if that was a good price or not.. ive always found its better to piece together my own turbo kits starting with a manifold and a turbo i picked and pick the rest of the parts by hand. as long as you can find affordable engine managment.

Very excited to see where this goes. Im interested in essentially the same thing. Found a Spa kit for 900. Then upgrading the waste gate and prob better turbo later down the road. Hope this goes well for you, good luck with the build.

IMO its allways leary to go the cheap route. And if it does "work" in some cases it usually then doesn't last because the lack of power you can achieve with these parts and no intercooler.

Some of us aren't looking for a racecar. Personally I just want my little daily driver to be more fun than it already is. 5-8psi max un-intercooled. If I wanted to throw a $4000 turbo kit into my $5000 car, I would have just bought something faster to begin with.

Lol u miss understood my point. These cars are fun and when ppl throw together a budget turbo capable of say maybe 200whp. It gets addicting and they want more. Hence why most the time ppl go with more expensive routes and run low numbers till they get bored with it
